初中英语:零冠词

零冠词也是冠词的一种。

例如:This is my book.

Bread is made from flour.

注意:有些名词前用the,或不用the,其意义有所不同。例如:

go to school 上学 go to the school 到学校去

in future 今后,将来 in the future 将来

零冠词的用法:

1.表示抽象概括意义时,不可数名词和复数名词使用零冠词,例如:

(/)Books are my best friends.书是我的好朋友。

(/)Cotton feels soft.棉花摸起来柔软。

(/)Water boils at 100℃.水在摄氏100度沸腾。

比较:The water in this river is undrinkable.这条河的水不可饮用。

同样, in hospital是“住院(治疗)”,in prison是“服刑”,等等。

注意:如果在这类名词前加冠词,则表示去那里干与之无关的事,例:
